I have thought of a new magical property, for use with v3.5, and need some help. Here goes:
Deadweight
Only Two Handed melee weapons can be imbued with this ability. A charactor CANNOT use a deadweighted weapon made for a size category larger than him or her, even with the appropriate negatives. If a character picks up a deadweight weapon made for a person smaller than him, the weapon magically readjust itself so that it must still be used with two hands. A deaweighted weapon has X2 added to its critical. Example: A Deadweighted Greataxe does X5 critical.
So here is my dilemma. I know that this ability is powerful, but I fell like instead of having the weapon as a +X, I am wanting to have it as +XX,XXXgp base price. What do you guys think? WHat plus would you give it, if you think that is better, or what additional gp amount would you make it? Thanks in advance.
